CIVITAS

The EC's CIVITAS Initiative is a large-scale European programme to help European cities implement demonstration projects for sustainable mobility as well as to exchange experience among local transport planners.

For over 10 years, the CIVITAS Initiative has been addressing ambitious cities that are introducing or that are seriously committed to introducing urban transport policy strategies to promote sustainable urban mobility.

The aim is to achieve a change in behaviour and attitudes of citizens, planners, politicians and industries to achieve a greener model and more sustainability of various transport modes.

Co-funded by the European Union, the initiative has attracted the participation of over 60 cities, with the eight most recent joining through the two CIVITAS Plus II Collaborative projects: CIVITAS DYN@MO and CIVITAS 2MOVE2
